[b]Bangkok:[/b] K Srikanth became the latest badminton sensation to emerge from India as he lifted his maiden men's singles title with a stunning straight-game triumph over top-seeded local favourite Boonsak Ponsana at the Thailand Open Grand Prix Gold here today.[/font][/color][color=#3C3D3D][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
The 20-year-old from Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, beat world No. 8 Ponsana 21-16, 21-12 in a 34-minute match to script the biggest win of his still nascent career. "When I went onto the court, I was pretty okay. I was not thinking anything. He was the local guy and the court was also with him. I knew I had a 50-50 chance even though he is world No. 8," the excited youngster told [i]PTI[/i].[/font][/color][color=#3C3D3D][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
"I just wanted to give my 100 percent. I was focusing on one point at a time and I knew it was all about who plays well on that particular day," he said. The 13th-seeded Indian matched his fancied rival in all departments of the game in what turned out to be a lop-sided contest. "The win has not sunk in. I am still pretty excited. I spoke to my parents and they are also very happy. I will be travelling to Hyderabad tonight and probably fly back to Singapore next Friday or Saturday," he said.[/font][/color]
